Rashes over penile region could be due to skin allergy or infection .
I would like to have a look at the exact skin condition.
Please click some close up pictures of the affected area and upload them here on this page.
Also please tell Since when do you have this problem?
Is there any associated pain or itching or discomfort? What all are you applying over it .

I had cuts on the penis skin 2 weeks back , i visited the doctor and h gave me antibiotic and Nadoxin cream , which i applied for 10 days and took tablets , the skin infection reduced to agr8 extend , but i did observe rash on my penis head 2 days back , am attaching snap .

Now doctor has given me T Bact ointment , Chymoralforte 3 times a day each , and Aziwok 500 once after dinner

He is suspecting Syphillis and said i may need to do a VDRL test . am worried is Syphillis treatable if it is found , he feels the syphillis may have reoccured after 20years ,
am literally worried if if it truth then will it be curable and will i have healthy life

Brief Answer:
Need good resolution images

Detailed Answer:
Hi again

I have seen the attached pictures .
Sorry to say but the picture quality is not that great .You surely seem to have some ulcerative lesion over the penile area .
It would be great if you can click some good resolution close up images of the affected area and upload them .
Also in my viewpoint too ,you should get a vdrl testing done since it is a basic and primary investigation to rule our syphilis .
